[the truth]

how many are realistic and do you actually want them to be?

Id have to say very few imho are realistic

over the decades, Id say perhaps the most realistic war film was the hill , saving private ryan, and maybe zulu....whereas in other genres, maybe midnight cowboy, on the waterfront, taxi driver, serpico , billy eilliott, twin town, deer hunter and mean streets

but the majority are flights of fancy, OTT special effects, hammed up acting etc etc
